Hurricane Dorian, Brexit, finding your voice, and saving the Guam Kingfisher
Description
We begin with Hurricane Dorian. While Global’s Jackson Proskow says the storm is weakening as it approaches the US east coast, it has devastated the Bahamas. We’ve got an update.
Brexit continues to dominate world politics as Britain struggles with how it will leave the European Union. Reporter Redmond Shannon says Prime Minister Boris Johnson faces an internal revolt that could force another election.
We’ve got a fascinating story about how we perceive each other by the sound of our voices. Ari Agha was assigned female at birth but identifies as genderqueer. Many would hear Ari’s voice and assume it was a woman’s. Would taking testosterone change that and impact Ari’s singing voice? A musical collaboration about that journey called "The Key of T" will take place at the U of C later this month.
Dr. Axel Moerenschlager joins us in studio from the Calgary Zoo to share the story of the endangered Guam Kingfisher. This beautiful bird is no longer found on the island, but from our zoo might just bring about its return.
Finally, our social media guru Mathew Conrod joins us with what Calgarians are talking about online.
